A NEW REVOLUTION

THE NEW SEXUAL REVOLUTION 

   If the factual account of the Biblical creation of man is to be accepted as the truth, there should be no objection to the examination of those facts. God created a perfect man with the reoccurring need for food and water. Also, God’s perfect creation had a reoccurring need for sexual satisfaction. The Bible confirms that God looked upon his creation and said it was good.

   For hundreds of years man lived as God had intended. The primary objective of primitive man was to obtain food, water, and sexual satisfaction. Those same objectives were extended into other societies such as the Greeks, the Romans, and the Egyptians.

   It was an accepted fact that sexual satisfaction was necessary for God’s creation to be happy. Thus, society allowed multiple sexual relationships. Marriage was not so much an institution of love but an institution to extend the family lineage.  

   Then a young Scottish man by the name of James inherited the British throne. To atone for a troubled childhood and a mischievous adolescence, he set out to revise the prophetic teachings.  As a royal child he had been raised by male tutors, and, as a result, he felt he had missed the love of a family.  So his primary objective was to strengthen the institution of marriage with the hope of improving family ties. This was the beginning of a new sexual revolution.

   According to King James, a young couple would be expected to enter a lifetime commitment of marriage without any previous experiences. This commitment would be one man to one woman until death. There could be no premarital sexual relations, and certainly no practice sessions.

   Many wise men questioned this new document.  They argued that it was wrong to harness an individual with a lifetime of sadness based on one mistake, particularly if that mistake was as easy as the failure to distinguish between lust and love.  Nevertheless, the powers of the King were absolute, and in the end the King got what the King wanted.

  The King chose a panel of so-called Biblical scholars who would select, from a series of prophetic writings, those that would be included into a book that would later be called the King James Bible. (The writings that were omitted were combined into a book called the Apocrypha.) 

   God’s creation had been perfect, but with man’s intervention, perfection turned into imperfection.   Sexual satisfaction could not be obtained within the confines of marriage between one man and one woman, thus alternative measures had to be developed.  Sex had to be driven into a secret experience. Men would have to hide girlie magazines under the mattresses and tiptoe into the bathroom late at night with a sex magazine hidden securely in their pajamas.   Women would have to hide sexual toys deep in the kitchen cabinets or in places where only women would look.  Men and women would have to seek sexual satisfaction outside the marriage contract. According to the King, self-gratification would also be prohibited.  As a result, humans were left in a situation of sexual deprivation.

    The increased divorce rate proves that the marriage contract between one man and one woman for life is a mistake. Instead of accepting the fact and correcting it, man has attempted a cover-up which has driven sexual satisfaction into an underground experience. It is a sad commentary that contemporary man has allowed the interpretations of one man to create a nation of sexually destitute individuals. 

   The true fact is that the King James’ Version of the Bible was not dropped from heaven in a leather bound, red-letter edition as many church-goers still believe. As the human race has progressed, it has been proven that the book many call holy has turned out to be not so holy after all.
